Ontarians want a more vibrant and friendlier public realm. We know that easing traffic congestion is about giving people more transportation options, not fewer. Ontarians want to achieve net zero for a greener, healthier future and want their communities to be connected so that not every trip to school, to the store, or to work has to be taken by car.

We know that complete streets save lives and prevent senseless, devastating, violent crashes. So why is This legislation being proposed? It will only stop municipalities from building safe streets, and even tear out existing safe streets, all to save drivers a few seconds on their commutes. I love my communities’ bike lanes, and I don't want the province saying where they can or can't be built because:

Road design determines who lives and who dies in a crash

Bike lanes are good for business

They’re good for the environment

They’re good for public and personal health

They give us freedom and mobility

Bike lanes save lives
